Procrastination

by Max Bouillet

Procrastination is a crumbling
tombstone
in a neglected cemetery
with an unfinished
epitaph.

The image presented by this piece is so powerfully evocative; a testament to the unfinished business of time. Excellent description.

Max, I couldn't help but laugh when I read this. THIS is true procrastination... I mean, there ain't no more time to do anything about it! There's not even an ending to the ending...!

A unique and emphatic definition of procrastination. Congratulations on being #1 for Best Overall!

Hi Max, Good one, Don't why but I guess we all put off things that need done. At least once in awhile. We shouldn't so much, it happens. Peace & Joy, Jean.

Don't know why. I left out a word. Oooops.

Increadible way to use images to drive home a point. Procrastination is neglecting something or someone.
